The 2009 Frederick Douglass Book Prize
Gilder Lehrman Center


The Gilder Lehrman Center for the Study of Slavery, Resistance, and
Abolition Announces
The 2009 Frederick Douglass Book Prize

The Gilder Lehrman Center is accepting nominations for the 2009 Frederick
Douglass Book Prize, a $25,000 award for the most outstanding nonfiction
book published in English in 2008 on the subject of slavery and/or abolition
and antislavery movements. Publishers and authors are invited to submit
books that meet these criteria.  We are interested in all geographical areas
and time periods. Please note, however, that works related to the Civil War
are acceptable only if their primary focus relates to slavery or
emancipation.

Nominations for books published in 2008 will be accepted beginning in
January 2009. The deadline for submissions is March 31, 2009.
